:58:00
when my cartilage went
and they were taking me off on a stretcher...
:58:04
l looked up and l saw this father...
:58:08
holding his little child up on his shoulders.
:58:12
They thought l was a hero,
but you know something?
:58:15
l envied that man so much. He was my hero.
:58:20
All Desmond wants
is to hold his kids up on his shoulders.
:58:25
We can help you to that.
:58:27
But how, Tom? There is no right of appeal.
:58:30
Ferris made sure of that.
:58:31
We don't need an appeal.
:58:33
Not if we bring an entirely new case...
:58:36
based on an entirely different
principle of law.
:58:39
But we're automatically barred
from bringing the same facts...
:58:42
before the same court
that's already heard them.
:58:44
Be it the District Courts or High Courts,
we've nowhere else to go.
:58:48
There is somewhere else to go.
:58:50
The Supreme Court.
:58:52
The Supreme Court?
:58:54
We can't go there with this.
:58:56
They won't hear a case like this.
They only deal with big stuff.
:59:00
Yes.
:59:01
Like laws that contravene
the lrish Constitution...
:59:05
which l've been reading.
:59:10
Wait a second. Hold on.
:59:12
Has anyone ever successfully
challenged the law on these grounds?
:59:17
No.
:59:23
-What chance do you think we've got?
-Who knows?
:59:26
But l've seen games won by teams
without any hope at all.
:59:34
Bloody hopeless.
:59:37
Good evening,
and welcome to the very first edition...
:59:41
of Conversations With Canning...
:59:43
on this marvelous new medium
of the television.
:59:47
For those of you who listen to my show
on the wireless...
:59:50
I hope I'm even better looking
than you thought.
:59:55
Now, many of you...
:59:58
will remember these sad headlines
of last month.:
